Bitcoin AudibleGuy's Take_079 - BITCOIN IS NOT MONEY"I hope Bitcoin sticks around and grows more popular, but in its current form to most in #TradFi it is the opposite of SOUND MONEY, especially if it takes cult-like behavior to make it grow. It needs the STATE to force its use on everyone. That is what makes it MONEY."
~ Samantha LaDuc
Today we dive into the enlightening twitter thread from financial analyst Samantha LaDuc on why Bitcoin cannot be and is not money, one of which is because money is enforced by the state, but that's only just the beginning. 2024-01-201h 03

The Fed appears trapped now, acknowledging even encouraging inflation while trying to convince market they won’t tighten into inflation. Bond market thinks otherwise as it continues to sell off. Where are the hedges should indices really pick up to the downside?
Jonathan @vigtecofficial and Samantha discuss what all this means for risk equities.

Samantha and Jonathan outline the impending impact to equities and how big institutions are expected to position into end-of-month and end-of-quarter. Tune in to find...2021-03-171h 03Macro-to-Micro Power HourCan Higher Oil Break Markets?Samantha's favorite oil trader, Robert MacMinn, is back to discuss this manic move in oil and the (lack of) fundamentals to support it. Oil is approaching key levels where it could inflict damage to economic recovery.
Should oil move higher on sentiment of pent-up-demand and vaccine rainbow, can a nation of deeply indebted consumers and companies alike facing supply-chain price surges for goods, even afford higher oil?
It's time to get Samantha and Robert together again to discuss where to Oil.

Samantha and Jonathan discuss and debate whether the market is front-running not only a 'taper tantrum' (potential tighter monetary) and USD rally (core inflation stronger than expected) but also increasing odds of a de-risking or rotation event (think gamma unwind) from growth-to-value!2021-02-241h 05Macro-to-Micro Power HourHuge VIX Squeeze Coming?"Morgan Stanley Warns Record Flood Of Retail Investors Is Buying The VIX, Could Trigger Huge Squeeze".
Jonathan of@vigtecofficial and Samantha aren't buying it so instead they discuss how short-end of VIX curve shows extreme complacency with hedge fund cross-asset positioning. They discuss $TSLA holding UP the market and with it all EPS expectations... and why it matters!
Samantha shares her upcoming Volatility Regime thesis and continues her commodity long, bond/gold short thesis but with an important caveat. Fed is likely to intervene sooner rather than latter. Bond market smells it.
